1. A base station placement design method comprising:
calculating communication qualities of terminals in a case where a base station is installed at a base station placement candidate location among a plurality of base station placement candidate locations for each of the plurality of base station placement candidate locations;
aggregating the number of terminals whose communication quality among the communication qualities calculated is equal to or greater than a threshold value for each of the plurality of base station placement candidate locations;
selecting a base station placement location from among the plurality of base station placement candidate locations, based on the number of terminals aggregated for each of the plurality of base station placement candidate locations; and
installing a base station at the selected base station placement location.
